San Cries
A/n: Again, this is not a lemon fic, but there is some sexual suggestive. So if you're about 10 or under, you might want to think about it before reading my story. To everyone else: Sorry for not updating and enjoy the deep Romance that is Princess Mononoke!
-------------------------------------
The swirl of emotions almost too much for her to handle. Never before has she felt a love like this. Never before had she known it had existed. Her spirit was slowly swept away into a crystallized emotion, not wanting to come back. She broke the kiss to bite the side of her love's neck, in order to mark him as her own. A small amount of blood seeped out and she gently lapped it up. Stating to feel the connection between herself and him. Somehow understanding, Ashitaka did the same to her. A race of adrenalin went threw her whole body as she found herself sitting down, her lips pressed against his and his tong dancing with her own. She wanted it never to end, but he pulled back. Ashitaka kissed her forehead then looked in her eyes. Her usual rough, sharp eyes were clouded and somewhat dazed. "San, how much I love you is immeasurable," he took her into his arms and said quietly in her ear; "will you marry me?" The shock of happiness of what he had just asked her was almost painful. She wanted to say yes, but was afraid of it. This would make him hers forever, but…she just couldn't live in captivity. "Ashitaka, you mean more to me then anything on earth, or in the heavens, but I…I'm scared to say yes." She looked at him, expecting to see anger, but saw nothing but his slight smile at her. "I understand, you're just not ready. I'll wait for you." She didn't know why, but she started crying. It was the same sort of feeling when he let her wander out into the woods. She said she wanted to, and he let her, even though that would mean being apart. Did he not love her enough to chase her? "Ashitaka…" She pulled away, tears still streaming down her face. "I'm going back to the forest. I…I can't see you anymore." She saw a twinge of hurt, but no protest escaped him, no hand grabbed her arm as she walk out of the hut. 'No…'
-------------------------------------
No matter how much she cried, the tears just kept coming. 'Why? Why Ashitaka? Why did you let me go?' There was no choice; she was going to leave the forest of shishigami, to start a new life. "Brothers, you stay and watch the after the forest. I'm gong out to find other forests to protect. Farewell." She nuzzled the two pups she had grown up with. She was going to miss them a lot. Walking out of the forest, she remembered the crystal dagger around her neck, and threw it across the forest. "I'll forget all about you, Ashitaka." She turned and started her journey.
Down the rocky path out of the forest or shishigami, she saw a figure threw her tears. Walking closer to it, she saw her love, Ashitaka. There was a moment of silence, it seemed like forever. Slowly, he put his arm out in front of him. Hanging on one of the fingers was her necklace. She took it in wonder, and then looked at him. "Ashi…" Her words were cut off as she was pulled tightly into his strong arms, he almost crying himself. "San, why would you leave?" The question rang in her head. How could he not know? "Because…I thought you wouldn't chase after me." Not able to se his face, she could still almost make out the look of shock crossing it right now. "When I went back into the woods to live there, you let me go, and just smiled as if it didn't matter. When you asked me to marry you, I…I was scared, so I didn't say yes, but you didn't comfort me, you just let me walk out the door. WHY?!" Now she threw her arms around him and dug her head into his chest. "I want to be with you, please will you let me?" She felt his grip tighten on her. "Of course." They stayed like that for what seemed like hours. Soon the rain started to fall, a storm was brewing. "Come, we can stay in that cave." He led her into a small cave about 10 minutes from the outskirts of the forest. They lie on his hay cloak, arms around each other, trying to stay warm. It was quiet for a while. San felt so much guilt; she had left him all because he cared about her enough to let her wait. "Ashitaka," she scooted closer to him if possible. "I love you, and I'm done waiting." There was a short pause. "Thank you." She turned around to look at his gentle face. "I love you too, San. Always remember that. He kissed her deeply, as she put her arms around him. This time there was a new emotion there, it was desire. Another emotion she had never felt before. 'Ashitaka…' The kiss deepened more as she leaned back slowly.
-------------------------------------
The next morning seem different then any morning she'd ever woken up to. This time, she woke up with Ashitaka's warm figure lying next to her, with witch she felt protected and loved. San moved in closer and whispered, "I love you." Then fell back to sleep. Her soul now had a place; with his.
